Hi there. It’s still dark outside. Proper early. The quiet sort of early when the world hasn’t quite woken up yet. Ragnar and Erik have just come charging in through the back door, both of them cold, bushy-tailed and full of purpose. Side by side, tails straight up like dodgems at the fair. They always arrive like that – as if they’ve got somewhere important to be. I do love those two. After I fed them, I did something out…
Hi Friends! Let’s shine a little light on a little light! Yes yes yes – our lovely Lightwaves are super cool and so so useful! Whether you‘re a parcher or a doodler, there‘s nothing quite like this brilliant uplighter tablet. Super slim too. CLICK HERE I’ve just checked stock levels of these, and we only have 22 left. Black storage bags have sold out, but we still have a few Lightwaves left, which is great. Just levelling with you. If…
Hi there! Sorry for the late blog! It‘s been a day, I can tell you! I was just about to climb the apples and pears here at Mum‘s place, after a lovely evening in her company – and it occurred to me!! I haven‘t posted a countdown blog!!! No no no. We can‘t have that!! I will not fall now, with just 19 days to go!! So blog on my phone I shall! Not the easiest , but hey! I‘ve…
Hi there Great gifts or what? There’s nothing like a handmade gift. And small is good too. Something that firstly doesn’t take yonks to make, and secondly doesn’t intrude. You know what I mean. I think most of us crafters love to make for friends and family, but many of us also worry that our work might not be to the other person’s liking. I really get it. My guess is that’s why we make cards and not wall hangings!…

Sleep well x Love and clarity, Barb x x…
Hi there. Yep. Thirty days to Christmas. This time next month it will be Christmas Day. Running this 100 Days to Christmas blog has actually been a real eye opener on just how quickly time flies. Which makes me think hard about what we do with our precious time, friends. I mean, how much of my precious time do I waste? Literally waste. It’s a funny old game, LIFE, isn’t it? Still beats the alternative though! I guess work hard…
31 days to Christmas?!? You’re joking! Where is the time going?? All I keep saying is, “Well, I’ve ordered the turkey!”. As if that is an indicator that I’ve got things under control. Ha Ha Ha. And so to my old mantra, ONE DAY AT A TIME. As soon as I say that to myself, I immediately feel relief. Believe me when I say that any anxiety I may be experiencing has nothing to do with Christmas. I really am…
